    It's going to be a pretty good spot if you keep it up.

    A temple of the Nichiren sect. The way is uphill, but it is about a 7-minute walk from Shichirigahama Station. The origin is omitted because other people have written it. It's almost untouched, so there are places that you're worried about, but the statue is also magnificent and worth a visit. It will be a very good spot if it is maintained!

    There are many places related to Mr. Nichiren in Kamakura. It is said that this temple's land was where Mr. Nichiren begged for rain a long time ago. There is a pine tree that is the site of Nichiren Shonintsuji preaching. It is a great place to study history.

    Do you know "Reikoji"? It is a temple of the Nichiren sect located in Shichirigahama facing Sagami Bay located in the southwestern part of Kamakura. The nearest station is about an 8-minute walk from Shichirigahama Station of Enoshima Electric Railway. In front of the mountain gate, there is a stone pillar engraved with the masterly Nanmu Myoho Renge Sutra, and the flat forehead of the mountain gate is engraved with the mountain name Ryuoyama. In 1271, when the great drought hit, Regent Tokimune Hojo ordered the Ninja of Gokuraku Ji Temple to pray for rain, but it did not rain, and when Nichiren started to chanting the Hokke Kyo Sutra, heavy rain began to fall.

    A Navy general was founded in the site of the Nichiren Reiji. In 1271, when Tokimune Hojo, who had been in power due to the drought, ordered the rain to beg for rain, the ninjo of Gokurakuji Temple did not rain, but it is said that Nichiren was blessed with rain when he recited the sutras here.

    Legend of rain begging

    Original Text

    It is said that Nichiren shonin prayed for rain. The guide along the road is a stone sign, and there is a stone monument just ahead of it. There were no tourists on weekdays in February. The main hall stands quietly in the trees, and the statue of Nichiren saints singing from the hill toward the pond was magnificent.
